Amador Valley high’s help
after Camp Fire still amazes

November 8, 2019, will be the one-year anniversary of the worst wildfire in California history.

For us, it is a sad reminder of all we lost that day. Most of all, we lost our mom when she died in a truck that caught fire while trying to escape the conflagration.

We are grateful we are still alive and have been able start over — and also to those who reached out and helped us after the Camp Fire. Family and friends reached out and allowed us to share their homes and reached deep into their pockets to provide us with much-needed funds.

However, what is so amazing to us is how so many of the staff and students at Amador Valley High School in Pleasanton were so extremely generous to people they had never met.
